Common questions

Can we import the members ourselves?

Not in bulk yet. We import the member list from one file as part of onboarding.

Can you move our payment history from the old system?

Moving more than the member list is agreed work at the hourly rate or from an hour bank. You get an estimate first, and the work starts once you have accepted it.

How do members get their login?

Your offer explains how members get access to the new site.

What if we want to leave later?

You own your data. UT provides exports in open formats. Scope, delivery and handover if the service ends are specified in the agreement.
